Sara, I do know for example Spanish Portuguese and Italian, so if I buy the 
language would the voiceover then read correct as I am typing the right 
language. And  if I am in a web page which has the language would it read 
correctly too?

Thanks,
Rachel.

  There is no translation. If you type in English the Polish voice would just 
read the English sentences with Polish pronunciation. If you wanted to write in 
Polish you'd have to know the language and the voice would read it correctly 
but no translation would happen.
  I don't know anything about translation programs so can't answer that.
  hth,
  Sara

    HI all.

    Just took a quick look over at
    www.assistiveware.com
    and am wanting to purchase some of the  u s english voices.
    Can someone please explain to me and anyone else who may be interested, do 
you have to actually purchase the infavox demo or just each voice on it's own 
to use with voice over?
    Also just out of interest, if you purchase a multilingual voice for example 
polish or whatever language you choose, could  you  write in english and the 
other language voice will then convert the english to say polish or german will 
it?
    It would be kind of nice to be able to say type in english phrases and have 
them translated to polish so I could then communicate with my Grandma who 
doesn't speak english all that well.
    Is this possible or is there a program I could download that would do this?

    Just thought i'd ask.
